- $50 unlimited calling plan, with addons for text and data. Not bad a bad price plan, bound to unbalance both contract providers like Sprint, and no contract providers like Boost.
- Monthly payments for handsets. Instead of coughing up $499 for the latest Android phone, you can put a deposit down and then pay off the rest of your handset monthly on your cell phone bill.
Neither one of these is totally game changing, but is bound to turn some heads of Flexpay customers and folks who don't want a contract, but want a better handset, like a smartphone, and a decent price plan. Both market segments are largely ignored by Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint, due to their volatility, but there is money to be made in this current economy by grabbing their loyalty now.
For those of you who are T-Mobile customers, it should be business as usual. If you don't know about T-Mobile's Loyalty Plan, you should check to see if you're eligible. Project Dark is geared toward new users with credit problems and to grab new market share. Not to say that you can't get the new plans when released, just that you shouldn't get too excited.
We'll keep you posted.
